TV Commercial
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHEzC4xr1vI
![Page 12: 2014 – 2015 SO Marketing and Recruitment Plans](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56815188550346895dbfc1f6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Rationale• College athletic programs’ universal and diverse
demographic profiles have the ability to reach all KCTCS targeted audiences.
• Combined, our college sports coverage has the ability to reach every area of the state.
• Kentucky does not have professional sports….this increases the power of buying college sports.
![Page 13: 2014 – 2015 SO Marketing and Recruitment Plans](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56815188550346895dbfc1f6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Rationale• Allows us to reach our audience at many
touch points; signage at the game, on-field activities, print, radio, tv/cable, pa announcements etc. Very few media buys provide this type of coverage.
![Page 14: 2014 – 2015 SO Marketing and Recruitment Plans](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56815188550346895dbfc1f6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Rationale• Transfer is one of our core missions.– CPE, policy-makers, legislators have challenged us
to increase the number of KCTCS students transferring to four-year institutions.
• The four-year college buy reinforces our transfer relationship.
• It allows us to be able to sponsor unique transfer events with these institutions.
![Page 15: 2014 – 2015 SO Marketing and Recruitment Plans](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56815188550346895dbfc1f6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Rationale• Both the 2006 and 2011 prospective student
research indicates that while we have made great progress in elevating the image of community colleges…there is still much work to be done. – Many still do not perceive us as “higher education.”
Aligning with UK/U of L places us in this arena….provides credibility.
– 2011 perception ratings dropped among all groups because of lack of college life/social activities. This buys places us in the typical college social environment – college sports.
![Page 16: 2014 – 2015 SO Marketing and Recruitment Plans](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56815188550346895dbfc1f6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Rationale• A statewide media buy gives us more “bang for the
buck” compared to buying locally and outside the sports campaign. For example, in 2012-13 buy:
• Persons ages 12-17– CPM (cost per thousand views): $278 ($500 CPM non-UK/UL
statewide buy; $700 CPM purchased locally)
• Persons ages 18-34– CPM: $77 ($139 CPM non-UK/UL statewide buy; $194 CPM
purchased locally)
• Persons ages 25-54– CPM: $31 ($56 CPM non-UK/UL; $78 CPM purchased locally)

Fall Enrollment Blitz• Goal– To support the colleges with their fall enrollment
efforts.– No decline in enrollment for Fall 2014.– Increase awareness among the state’s thinking and
talking public about the role KCTCS plays in the state’s economy.
– Increase awareness among Kentuckians of the unique high-wage, high demand jobs programs KCTCS offers.

Fall Enrollment Blitz• Execute parallel public relations, direct marketing
and media campaigns to support the effort.• Utilize a combination of direct mail and e-mail blasts
to reach all targeted audiences.• Support direct recruitment campaign with a
